Idaho TV station KBOI posted Ortega’s 20-minute video, filmed as an audition tape to get on Oprah, where the suspect describes his philosophy on God, marijuana and how God gave us marijuana.

In the footage, he confesses, “There’s so much more that God needs me to express to the world. It’s not just a coincidence that I look like Jesus. I am the modern-day Jesus Christ that you all have been waiting for.”

Ortega reads slowly and deliberately from a spiral-bound notebook, going from point to point, saying we’re all a part of God’s family and we need to end gang violence, beer pong and alcoholism and rely more on marijuana.

He said he was able to communicate with God through his mind and saw himself as having a special role in history now that the end of the world was approaching.

“If you watch these shows on the History Channel like the Lost Book of Nostradamus and others, you will see these people talk about one male, in clear English, as if they are trying to send a message through time,” he said. “When I first saw that, there was no doubt in my mind that the message sent through time was solely for me. I interpreted it, one male will make a difference or die trying.”

Ortega allegedly chose last Friday, 11-11-11, to fire an assault rifle at a White House window because of assumed connections between that date and the end of the world. Police caught Ortega in Pennsylvania Wednesday, and he appeared in court the next day.

According to the new video, Ortega believes in guardian angels, Shark Week and the glory of 1984 Madonna, Gawker notes.

“You’ve heard the phrase the best things in life are free,” he said to the camera. “Well, it’s true. God gave us everything we need to live and enjoy life, like food to fuel, water to hydrate, sex for fun, horses for long-term transportation and marijuana to inspire and thrive, etc.”
